RE: [buffywantswillow] FIC: Life on My Block (7/7)

You are the meanest rotten human on the plants. You just can't leave me
hanging. This story always has me so edge, I might have to dive over the
edge of sanity if you do not write a sequel. I can find out were you live
and sit my 300 pound body onto of you until you finish the next story.

Translation of the babble is, It is a damn go story and I really need a
sequel. Love C

PART SEVEN

I want to wake up and know where I'm going
Say I'm ready
Say I'm ready

Buffy sat in her cell praying silently as the minute hand on the 
clock ticked by.

"Up on your feet." She started shaking when the guards came
into the 
cell.

Tears fell from her eyes when the guards took a hold of her and led 
her out of the cell and down the hallway. She'd said her finally 
good-byes to everyone and had sent a letter to Xander with Willow. 
Kat was the hardest one to say good-bye to. The daughter that was a 
scientific impossibility. She didn't really know her daughter. 
Not on the level that a mother was supposed to know her daughter.

I want to go where the rivers are overflowing and
I'll be ready
I'll be ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me

Kat burst into Willow's room even though she wasn't supposed
to bother her while she was taking a nap. Willow had been working at 
the hospital well into the afternoon. When she came home she
didn't say much except not to bother her.

"Aunt Willow!" Kat yelled shaking Willow awake.

"What? Kat what is it?" Willow rubbed the sleep out of her
eyes. She looked at the dark sky outside her window then glanced at 
her clock.

12:01

"On the TV... you should hear this." Kat grabbed her hand
pulling her out the door and down the stairs.

If the waters can redeem me
I'm ready
I'm ready
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me

She could hear the TV blaring a news report. "I just got off the 
phone with a representative from Judge Johnson's office. He
stated that just a few hours ago a Mr. Allan Finch..." The
reporter
looked down at a sheet of paper.

He was standing out side the prison where protesters were being 
forced back by the police. "...who was the deputy mayor of 
Sunnydale, California during the time of Buffy Summers arrest. Mr. 
Finch provided the Judge with a videotape of a conversation between 
Mayor Richard Wilkins and Judge Steven Conlin..." he paused
listening to something in his ear.

The phone rang beside Willow. "Hello?"

"Willow, it's Cordy. Are you watching the news?" Willow
nodded her head but realized that Cordy couldn't see her.

"Uh yeah. I'll call you back." Cordy had changed in the
years since high school and they'd become close friends. The 
reporters voice brought her thoughts back to the TV.

"We are told that the tape was a plan between the two men to
convict Buffy Summers..." Behind him the crowd broke through the 
police line. "I've just learned that Judge Johnson has
issued a
stay of execution while the tape is being reviewed... stay tuned for 
more reports."

I want to wake up
I want to know where I'm going
I want to go where the rivers are over-flowing
I'm ready to let the rivers wash over me
I'm ready
I'm ready ...

END STORY

There will be a sequel but I'm taking a few days to plan the story 
out (something I didn't do with this). Feel free to email me with 
comments and suggestions on this story (its still hasn't been beta 
read). Also, let me know what you'd like to see happen in the next 
fic.
